Who Is Bright HealthCare?
Bob Sheehy, the former CEO of United Healthcare, co-founded Bright Health with partners Kyle Rolfing and Tom Valdivia, as well as seed investor Flare Capital Partners, after raising $81.5 million in venture capital in 2016. The company stated that it would concentrate on “consumer-centric” technology that would improve patient experiences through digital interfaces. Bright Health is headquartered in Minneapolis. In collaboration with Centura Health, it first began offering plans in the state of Colorado, following the announcement of several large insurers withdrawing from the state.
